This style is mainly aimed at the Japanese living style mixed with influences from Scandinavia. A beautiful living style completely of this time. Read more quickly and be inspired.
The Japandi living style is known for simplicity and tranquility. Few things and not too much kitty, but it is certainly not boring! With a Japandi interior you don't have to worry that it will get chilly in the house. Just the opposite. With a Japandi interior you get a house with a nice and warm appearance. This is mainly due to the different types of textile that are used, the use of colors and materials.
In case you wonder what kind of material is often used in a Japandi interior, wood. This gives the interior a natural look and provides a lot of warmth. Some dark wood colors are often used. You can easily let wood come back as there is a very wide range of wooden furniture. Think of dining tables, cabinets or coffee tables. The Kave Home brand offers a number of wooden pearls in their range. Perfect to add a little Japandi to your home.
A little Japandi in the house wouldn't go amiss for anyone. A wonderfully quiet interior without too much stuff and clutter. How do you apply this to your seating area, for example? With Japandi you have to think of minimalistic, with natural materials and contrasts between light and dark for a playful effect. So go for a light-colored sofa in a beige shade with a sturdy, natural-looking fabric. Combine this with a wooden coffee table in a dark shade and a light burlap rug. Add some extra nature by adding a rattan armchair. This way you have a mix of natural materials and a nice contrast between light and dark.
Although Japandi is about creating a calm and simple atmosphere, it does not have to mean that you are not allowed to use any accessories at all, on the contrary. But make sure that you also use calm colors and fine materials here. A beautiful wall panel on the wall can complete the Japandi style. You can also play nicely in lighting and use natural materials.
